For this is what the Lord says:

“To the eunuchs(A) who keep my Sabbaths,
    who choose what pleases me
    and hold fast to my covenant(B)
to them I will give within my temple and its walls(C)
    a memorial(D) and a name
    better than sons and daughters;
I will give them an everlasting name(E)
    that will endure forever.(F)
And foreigners(G) who bind themselves to the Lord
    to minister(H) to him,
to love the name(I) of the Lord,
    and to be his servants,
all who keep the Sabbath(J) without desecrating it
    and who hold fast to my covenant—
these I will bring to my holy mountain(K)
    and give them joy in my house of prayer.
Their burnt offerings and sacrifices(L)
    will be accepted on my altar;
for my house will be called
    a house of prayer for all nations.(M)(N)

10 This is the covenant(A) I will establish with the people of Israel
    after that time, declares the Lord.
I will put my laws in their minds
    and write them on their hearts.(B)
I will be their God,
    and they will be my people.(C)
11 No longer will they teach their neighbor,
    or say to one another, ‘Know the Lord,’
because they will all know me,(D)
    from the least of them to the greatest.
12 For I will forgive their wickedness
    and will remember their sins no more.(E)[a](F)
